On Winner-Take-All Politics
Because of Hurricane Sandy's mighty punch, many of us are still without power
and unable to get to our New York City studio or offices. As Bill told us via
phone this week, We all live at the whim of Nature, and Nature always has the
last word. So this weekend were re-airing the very first Moyers & Company,
which remains as relevant and powerful heading into Election Day as it was in
January. Featuring a conversation with Jacob Hacker and Paul Pierson,
co-authors of Winner-Take-All Politics: How Washington Made the Rich Richer
And Turned Its Back on the Middle Class, the show explores how Americas vast
inequality didnt just happen -- its been politically engineered.
Next week an all new Moyers & Company takes a look at Americas post-election
landscape.
